What to expect
After the war, most OSS Agents returned home to their normal lives, but for Frank Race, he became a troubleshooter and insurance investigator. Enjoy sixteen of his exciting radio adventures!
World War II changed the lives of many Americans. People moved from civilian careers to often radically different lives in the military. The Office of Strategic Services (OSS) was one of the most storied with its top-secret intelligence operations. Most OSS Agents returned home to their normal lives after the war, but for some it wasn’t that easy. For Frank Race, the war changed his life and he become a freelance troubleshooter and insurance investigator. In 1949, Tom Collins starred as fictional, former OSS Agent Frank Race. Later, Paul Dubov took over for Collins. Throughout the run, veteran radio character Tony Barrett played Race’s sidekick cabbie, Mark Donovan. The Adventures of Frank Race was the type of show that resonated with post-war America who tuned in to hear these exciting adventures.
